Answer 1

Answer: 911 call 911

Explanation:

Avi published his novel about a young-girl-turned-sailor in the 1990s, a decade when gender, class, and race (three of the book's major themes) were very hot topics. Movements such as third-wave feminism raised awareness about the problems faced by women of all races, regions, social standings, and sexual orientations. The debate over gay rights was also in full swing, as the LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) community was confronted with restrictive policies such as the military's implementation of Don't Ask Don't Tell. Meanwhile, the rise of multiculturalism along with policies such as Affirmative Action brought issues of race, ethnicity, and diversity onto America's center stage. Needless to say, the '90s were a politically-charged time; it's really no surprise, then, that it's also the decade that gave us the gender bending, system-challenging Miss Charlotte Doyle.
